US President Joe Biden declared solidarity with the Muslim community on Sunday after a fourth Muslim man was killed at Albuquerque, New Mexico, in what was described by the authorities as targeted attacks. Biden, in a Twitter post after the news of the fourth death, said he was angry and sad by the murder.
“While we are waiting for a full investigation, my prayer is with the families of the victims, and my government is very standing with the Muslim community,” Biden said in a Twitter post. “This hatred attack has no place in America.”
Police in New Mexico and Federal Agents are investigating the murder, the latest is happening on Friday night. Three other Muslim men who were killed in the largest city in the state in the last nine months seemed to have been targeted for their religion and race, the police said. Two of those who were killed were members of the same mosque, who were shot dead in Albuquerque in late July and early August. P
Olice said there was a “strong possibility” their death was connected to the murder of an Afghan immigrant in November. New Mexico State Police, FBI and Marshals Services U.S. are several institutions that help in the investigation. New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham said in a Twitter post on Saturday night, “The murder targeted by Muslim residents in Albuquerque is very angry and fully unleassed.”
